Nikola Jokic’s Finals run got him and the Nuggets a ring plus a Finals MVP. Through just 8 seasons he’s become one of the best players we’ve ever seen. Is he on track to be an All-Time great?

Jokic is better than Robinson, Barkley, Kawhi, Garnett… You can say defense all you want, but these awards are given out in regular season. Robinson was sub par star playoff performer, and has one WCF appereance without Duncan where he got heavily outplayed by Hakeem, Garnett didn't do anything until he joined a super team, and doesn't even have FMVP to his name… He is also better than Dirk. Jokic is a game changer like Dirk was for his time, and is all around better player than Dirk. Their defense is about the same, and Jokic is a similar scorer, better rebounder, and the best ever big man playmaker who is changing the game as we speak.. Wade is questionable, and KD is super overrated when it comes to all time list ranking. So Jokic is top 20 for sure, if he wins another title for Denver, he easily goes as top 15, somewhere behind Curry, and over KD, Moses, Wade, etc….
I love you calling the one who committed horrible acts that will not be mentioned here Epstein😂😂😂
I say 15-20 is a better range for him
easily above bron.
joker changed the game and his position.
bron never did that.
I still think Giannis is better than Jokic tbh
Depends on Racism..Best ever white player or what or Best euro player or some other bullshit…
When I saw Wilt at 11 I didn't take this list seriously.
Love this content
When The Greek Freak 1 the title a couple years ago I started seeing him pop up in a lot of people's top 20s, so I think top 25 for Big Honey is fair
9.2k 3h 237k subs
Jokic is Datsyuk . He just makes teammates better, while being awesome himself
Jokic dosent move for me- he was always this good in the playoffs, he Hasn't improved in anyway really, accolades mean nothing, a low end evaluation places him like 65~ and a high end places him in the top 50 ever and I have him like 52,
Top 20 all time. Plenty of time to get to top 10. He's already had a top 5 all time offensive peak.
Elgin has no ring
To keep it simple he over Shaq under Duncan
The "Jeffrey Epstein"-comment is worth a like even if you don't like anything else… 😀
The fact that you clown on Karl Malone literally every chance you get makes you look kinda sus Rusty.. Malone is without a doubt a garbage human being but most normal people wouldn't take it this far. You trying project there buddy?
Rusty still has duncan below kobe, smh
i really hope the mavs can build a good team around luka
Yh I’d have him top 20 cos i think he got robbed MVP this year since his numbers and efficiency was better. And a finals MVP with a run like that counts and that’s why I like ur list. Kawhi 2019 was special and 2 finals MVP personality I think if he did not get injured against Utah the year giannis won I’d give clippers the edge. Giannis won the championship in a injury riddled play offs
Been waiting for convos like this let’s do it. I got him top 20
Peak for peak kawhi and Jokic are easily top 15
I disagree with your wade and kawhii placement both are to high
Good content you’re close to being big man keep going
Perkin's is going to blow a gasket one of these years
great video, and im always here for the "he who shall not be named" hate 💪🏾
He’s already in my top 30. 2 MVPs and a Finals MVP gets you at least there for me. Same goes for Giannis obviously.
My dream roster, since no one asked:
Magic
S. Curry
MJ
T. Duncan
N. Jokic
Whoa 21st best player ever is Duncan robinson?
jokic or giannis higher all time? they pretty much have had the same career path
You can arguably say Jokic is the best center in the modern nba behind Shaq (Tim Duncan was not a center he was a power forward)
